On Tuesday night, Chesterfield face Grimsby Town in the biggest game of the season for both these League 2 teams. With a spot in the playoffs the carrot, these two rivals, who sit adjacent in the table either side of the playoff positions, know that a win here would be vital. Will our match prediction back the Spireites or Mariners?
The L2 table clearly demonstrates how huge this game is. Chesterfield sit seventh in the table with 69 points from 42 games, five behind Salford and Swindon in 6th and 5th respectively, but still in the playoff spots. Grimsby Town are eighth on 68 points, but with a game in hand having played just 41 games. The Mariners also have a better goal difference (+17 compared to +11).
One positive for the home side is that they are in good form of late. They won three league games by a 1-0 scoreline in succession. The first away to Accrington Stanley, the second at home to Cheltenham and the third a 1-0 win away to Barrow. However, they were surprisingly held at the weekend 1-1 at home by struggling Tranmere Rovers.
Grimsby's recent form is also strong, with one notable exception. They thrashed Barrow 5-0 at home but then were beaten 3-1 also at home by Harrogate in a surprise result. However since then, they beat Crawley 2-0 away from home and at the weekend earned a 3-2 home win over Crewe.

Our Chesterfield vs Grimsby Town Prediction
Our prediction for the Chesterfield vs. Grimsby Town League Two match is: A Draw.
This is going to be a very tough game to call. Both of these teams are in generally good form, but both have had upset results against teams in the lower reaches of the table of late. Chesterfield know anything less than a win will leave them exposed to being caught by Grimsby. A win for the visitors would be huge, but a draw would also keep both teams in it. As such, backing the draw here makes perfect sense.
